You can become a PWTorch VIP member for just $7.50 per month (or a discount of just $5.55 per month on average when you pay for a year up front). Payment for a Torch VIP E-Sub Membership is made exclusively through the reliable, totally secure, and popular e-commerce website Pay Pal, which conveniently accepts Master Card, Visa, Discover Card, and even payments through your checking or savings account. (Note: To take advantage of our Torch VIP E-Sub Membership, you must do so through the Pay Pal links below.)

Even if you aren't a Pay Pal member already, you can order a subscription through the Pay Pal website by using your credit card and creating an account just for your Torch subscription. Pay Pal makes signing up extremely user-friend. It takes just a few minutes.

Now you can receive all of the great Torch VIP features, but receive a discount off of our usual rates by opting out of receiving the actual print copy of the Torch Newsletter in the mail. We will pass the savings from printing and postage expenses on to you!

A "Torch VIP E-Sub Membership" includes all of the benefits that Torch VIP/Newsletter subscribers receive, except you won't receive the actual print newsletter (but you can read it online in its entirety). Those VIP benefits include the most comprehensive offerings you'll find anywhere at a very competitive price, including:

***VIP Email Express service (detailed below)

***VIP Audio Updates (detailed below)

***VIP Forum message boards (detailed below)

***VIP Archives (detailed below)

***Access Online to the latest Torch Newsletter articles (detailed below)

***VIP Archives section with thousands of news reports, feature columns, "Torch Talk" interviews, and more from over the last 15-plus years.

***Complete archive access to all PWTorch.com and VIP Email Express articles

***No Ads! You can access all of the VIP features plus the usual array of PWTorch.com articles in a totally ad-free environment (No more pop-ups or distracting and slow-loading display ads that are obviously necessary for the regular general-public version of PWTorch.com).

You can subscribe for just $7.50 per month, or save even more by subscribing for recurring payments every three months of $18.50, every six months for $35.50, or once a year for $66.50 (save $23.50 off our monthly plan rate).

You will be billed automatically by Pay Pay at the end of each membership term unless you indicate otherwise. Pay Pal makes it easy to stop future payments or change future payment options, such going shorter or longer-term with your payments. Just sign-in, click on subscriptions, and click cancel whenever you want service to stop or to change plans. Your Torch VIP password will be operational until the end of your paid term.

So for between $5.55 and $7.50 per month with no further obligation, you can become a PWTorch VIP E-Sub Member and enjoy the great online and email features thousands of PWTorch subscribers worldwide already enjoy, then do nothing and be renewed at the end of each period. You can also cancel anytime to stop the next payment. Your password will be active and valid through the full term you have paid. Please note that pro-rated refunds are not offered in mid-subscription.

IMPORTANT: If the name on your Pay Pal account will not match the name you'll be using to sign up for a VIP Password, please include next to your first name the name of the Pay Pal account name in the First Name line in parenthesis so that we can match the payment to the password application. So if your name is Josh Smith and the Pay Pal account name is David Smith, the first line of the VIP application form should say: "Josh (David Smith)."

Rates are the same for everyone anywhere in the world, so overseas PWTorch.com readers have the most affordable option ever to become a Torch VIP member. You must pay in U.S. funds.

CHOOSE ONE OF THE FOLLOWING FIVE OPTIONS:

-PLEASE READ THIS!!! DO NOT SKIP THIS LINE!!!!! When signing up through Pay Pal, after you have finished the subscription activation process, you must click all the way through the "ACCESS YOUR SUBSCRIPTION" button (after your click the "PAY" button) to access our Torch VIP Password sign-up page. At that point, you will choose your own username and password. If you do not follow this direction, you will not get a password and we will have to instruct you how to sign up via email, and it could take several days for us to get back to you.

-AS OF APRIL 2007: After signing up, you may not receive the confirmation email you expect due to email server problems we are currently working on. However, after signing up, check http://www.pwtorch.com/members and enter your username and password exactly as you created during this sign-up process. If it doesn't work, try back in a few minutes as we may not have approved your password yet. We will approve all new passwords within 20 minutes during business hours, and within a few hours at other times. We are checking more often to validate sign-ups due to this email server problem, so the wait should be less than we estimated above.

If you are interested in receiving a paper copy in your mailbox each week of the 12-16 page PWTorch Weeekly Newsletter, you can upgrade to that membership for about 50-80 cents more per week (depending on your subscription term). The entire contents of the PWTorch Newsletter are available online with a membership, but if you prefer like more than half of our members do, to get the paper copy delivered to your mailbox, just CLICK HERE for Full Torch VIP/Newsletter Subscription ordering information. (Note: Only a paper copy delivery subscription allows you other payment options in addition to Pay Pal. Those include ordering via Master Card or Visa using our secure online ordering form (thus no Pay Pal interaction or membership necessary) or via fax, or thru postal mail using personal checks of money orders. These subscriptions are NOT renewed automatically. Instead, you will be notified via email and on your PWTorch Newsletter address label when your subscription is about to expire.)
